Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 245 A Bountiful Harvest (Please Subscribe)

The bull-headed, six-armed demon god wore a mocking expression, as if he had expected it. His six demonic hands simultaneously formed hand seals, and surging demonic energy roared as it approached.

However, several arcs of lightning appeared on Shen Xuan's body, and he disappeared from the spot using the Lightning Escape Technique.

At the same time, the lightning arc suddenly expanded to a hundred feet long, carrying a suffocatingly terrifying aura, and bombarded the demon with overwhelming force.

"Boom!"

Thunder and fire filled the sky, like giant fireworks, bursting forth with boundless light.

Before the bull-headed, six-armed demon could even utter a scream, its massive body shattered into countless fragments in an instant.

With only one True Demon Core remaining, it remained intact and slipped back to its original spot.

After using his lightning escape technique, Shen Xuan used it repeatedly, his figure flashing multiple times, flying thousands of feet away.

He then stopped to observe the results of the bombardment by the Divine Thunder Talisman.

This was the first time Shen Xuan had used the Divine Thunder Talisman, and he truly experienced its power.

He estimated that it was more than a hundred times the value of a high-quality [Evil-Breaking Divine Thunder Talisman]!
Thinking about it, it makes sense.

Shen Xuan can produce five or six [Evil-Breaking Divine Thunder Talismans] a day.

The Divine Thunder Talisman was imprinted on his dantian daily with his divine soul and nourished with the fundamental spiritual power of the Dao for a full five years.

The amount of lightning spiritual power it absorbs is more than a hundred times greater than that of a high-quality [Evil-Breaking Divine Thunder Talisman]!
The bull-headed, six-armed demon god was incomplete, possessing only the cultivation level of the second-tier upper grade.

It couldn't withstand a single blow from the Divine Thunder Talisman!
Back then, when Master Wuchen, the lord of Yunyuan Immortal City, introduced the treasure talisman, he did not exaggerate its contents.

A precious talisman nurtured for a hundred years can threaten even a fake elixir cultivator.

However, ordinary second-tier talisman masters do not consume the basic source spiritual power of the Dao to nurture the talisman for a hundred years.

In that case, the cultivation level of a talisman master would stagnate, and their path to enlightenment would be cut off.

If Shen Xuan hadn't possessed the perfected [Self-Healing] talent skill, he wouldn't have dared to nurture the treasure talisman for an extended period.

Now, he not only nurtures the branded talismans, but he has three of them.

By issuing a divine thunder talisman, they could strike first and quickly defeat the bull-headed, six-armed demon god.

To prevent it from using its superior magical powers.

Shen Xuan observed from a distance for a long time.

The shattered demon's body was broken into more than a hundred pieces, showing no signs of healing.

He then slowly approached.

Before unleashing the Divine Thunder Talisman, Shen Xuan transmitted his voice to Huang Huanchu.

Tell her to retreat immediately.

Therefore, Huang Huanchu only suffered minor injuries from the blast.

Her gaze fell upon the dark gray True Demon Core on the ground, a glint of greed flashing in her eyes.

"If the Holy Maiden wants it, then take it!"

Shen Xuan sighed softly.

This True Demon Core is Huang Huanchu's purpose in entering the Azure Spirit Secret Realm.

It was extremely valuable, but Shen Xuan was unwilling to compete with Huang Huanchu for it.

The two of them were at least working together to fight the enemy.

Throughout the entire process, Huang Huanchu never laid a hand on Shen Xuan.

Moreover, Shen Xuan had to give Zhu Yingying some face.

"Shen Xuan, thank you!"

Huang Huanchu bowed slightly, then with a swift movement, took away the True Demon Core.

Clearly, this true demon core is quite useful for her to condense her demon core.

Just then, a whooshing sound came from behind.

Qianzhu Jushi and Qi Wanqing arrived together.

"Master Shen, are you alright?!"

"fine!"

"she……"

"Oh, this is Huang Huanchu, the Holy Maiden of the Hehuan Sect, she's a friend."

Shen Xuan gave a brief introduction.

The fact that Qianzhu Jushi and Qi Wanqing were able to come warmed his heart.

"Have you obtained the Worry-Free Fruit yet?"

"I took three. The guardian beasts are a group of long-armed demon monkeys, including a monkey king, a second-tier high-grade one, which is quite troublesome."

"Hold on."

Shen Xuan quickly cleaned up the battlefield, collecting all the storage bags, magic weapons, and magical treasures belonging to the six cultivators.

He also put the remains of the bull-headed, six-armed demon into his beast bag.

His skill was so adept that Qi Wanqing was amazed.

You can tell at a glance that he's an expert.

Huang Huanchu did not stop him.

She obtained the most valuable True Demon Core.

Everything else was of little importance to her.

"How long until the exit of the Azure Spirit Secret Realm opens?"

"Thirty-one days left."

Shen Xuan pondered for a moment.

Currently, only four cultivators remain in the Azure Spirit Secret Realm, along with two Zhu family cultivators and Fan Xiaoxian hiding on the outskirts.

These three are all in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, with meager skills, and need not be taken seriously.

Shen Xuan looked at Huang Huanchu.

"Is the saintess with us?"

"No! I will cultivate on my own. I will leave on my own after the secret realm opens."

"Take care, Holy Maiden!"

"Take care, Master Shen!"

Huang Huanchu transformed into a streak of light and disappeared into the depths of the mountain peak.

"Alright, now it's just us left."

Shen Xuan said to Qianzhu Jushi and Qi Wanqing, "Let's go to the Worry-Free Fruit Tree first and pick all the ripe Worry-Free Fruits!"

Without the interference of demonic cultivators or tribulation cultivators, Shen Xuan planned to sweep through the entire Qingling Secret Realm.

With the assistance of three Foundation Establishment stage cultivators—Qianzhu Jushi, Qi Wanqing, and Li Ruyi—this combination is enough to put them in a fighting chance even against a second-tier top-grade demon beast.

Over the next month.

Shen Xuan and the other two swept through the Azure Spirit Secret Realm.

Under the Worry-Free Fruit Tree, Shen Xuan and the others picked seven more ripe Worry-Free Fruits, which sent the group of long-armed demon monkeys fleeing in terror.

This was only because Shen Xuan showed mercy.

They were unwilling to become mortal enemies with that second-tier superior monkey king and fight to the death.

Otherwise, this group of hundreds of long-armed monkeys would have suffered at least 30% casualties.

Next, we collected various second-tier spiritual plants.

Li Ruyi was quite familiar with the Qingling Secret Realm.

Under her guidance, Shen Xuan and Qi Wanqing filled their jade boxes with second-tier spiritual plants.

As a result, they stopped collecting second-tier spiritual plants that were less than 300 years old.

As for the demonic beasts that guard the spiritual plants...

The slightly smarter ones hide in their nests and dare not come out.

Driven by greed, they tried to seize the spiritual plant, but were mercilessly killed by Shen Xuan and his two companions and stuffed into their beast bags.

Unfortunately, most of these guardian beasts are of the earth and wood element.

Water-attribute monsters are extremely rare.

There was only one, and it was the "Three-Legged Golden Toad" whose talent Shen Xuan had previously plundered.

This time, Shen Xuan reaped a great harvest in the Qingyuan Secret Realm.

There are as many as seven second-tier magic treasures.

Four of them were of medium quality.

In addition, there are five magical treasures of extremely high quality.

[Golden Body Corpse Refining Technique].

【Jingji Dan】Formula.

Twenty-three second-tier spirit plants over three hundred years old. Three corpses of the Bloodthirsty Mosquito King.

Millions of ordinary blood-sucking mosquito carcasses.

A three-legged toad carcass.

There are over 170,000 spirit stones and countless spiritual items for cultivation.

Both Qianzhu Jushi and Qi Wanqing were all smiles.

The two of them followed Shen Xuan, slaying demonic beasts and collecting spiritual plants along the way, reaping a bountiful harvest as well.

Of course, Shen Xuan also expended a lot of energy.

The three-headed Taiyin Corpse Beasts were all damaged.

The spiritual water in the purification bottle is almost used up and needs to be refined with spirit stones again.

The biggest expense was a Divine Thunder Talisman.

Its value is immeasurable.

However, despite the high costs, the rewards were equally substantial.

Shen Xuan put the remains of the bull-headed, six-armed demon into his beast pouch.

After leaving the Azure Spirit Secret Realm, Shen Xuan handed it over to True Person Wuchen in exchange for the sect merits of the Azure Water Sect.

Even if you can't exchange for the cultivation techniques and spells of the Azure Water Sect.

You can always exchange a few Foundation Establishment Pills.

Soon, a month passed.

Following the directions on the jade slip, Shen Xuan and his two companions arrived at the exit of the secret realm.

Here, there is a small teleportation array.

Huang Huanchu, Fan Xiaoxian, and the two cultivators from the Zhu family all arrived here ahead of time.

Of the nineteen cultivators who went to the Azure Spirit Secret Realm, only seven survived.

"This is a one-way teleportation array leading to Weiwu County."

Qianzhu Jushi walked to the center of the teleportation array and rearranged the nine mid-grade spirit stones according to the array's arrangement.

Soon, the teleportation array began to shimmer with spiritual light, and rings of spiritual patterns appeared.

Shen Xuan and Qi Wanqing arrived one after the other.

The three stood in the middle of the teleportation array.

Shen Xuan said to Huang Huanchu, "Holy Maiden, let's go together!"

"it is good!"

Huang Huanchu came to Shen Xuan's side.

"All three of you, come here!"

"Hey, here we come!"

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Shen!"

Fan Xiaoxian and Zhu Jia, the two cultivators, cautiously walked into the teleportation array.

Time passes slowly.

"Almost there, just ten breaths left!"

"That's what the hermit Qianzhu said."

Soon, the teleportation array's light grew brighter and brighter.

Immediately afterwards, rings of spiritual runes intertwined, generating waves of spiritual energy that enveloped everyone.

next moment.

The teleportation array was shining with an intense light.

Enveloped by waves of spiritual energy, Shen Xuan and the others were plunged into complete darkness.

It seemed like only ten breaths had passed.

After a feeling of dizziness.

When Shen Xuan regained consciousness, his body was already in mid-air outside the Azure Spirit Secret Realm.

Just as he used [Soaring Through the Clouds] to stabilize himself, he sensed a fluctuation of spiritual energy not far away.

It seems like someone is having a magical duel.

Shen Xuan landed first and took a short break to catch his breath.

To restore the body to its optimal condition.

Only then did he summon the Golden Clawed Divine Eagle Corpse Beast, attaching his divine sense to it to observe the cultivators' battle.

This time, after leaving the Azure Spirit Secret Realm, Shen Xuan did not see any of the seven major families' spaceships from the Mighty Martial County, which made him slightly uneasy.

When he finally saw the two people fighting, he was secretly surprised.

It turned out to be the two most powerful family heads in Weiwu County, Guan and Zeng.

Shen Xuan concealed his aura and quietly approached the area where the two were fighting, about thirty feet away.

This time, it's crystal clear.

The battle between the Guan family head and the Zeng family head was not an ordinary contest of magic, but a life-or-death struggle.

To his surprise, the head of the Guan family was covered in wounds, had exhausted most of his spiritual energy, and was struggling to resist, but was at a disadvantage.

He was clearly no match for the Zeng family head.

Shen Xuan frowned slightly and glanced at the Zeng family head.

"Fellow Daoist Shen has arrived, why not show yourself?"

Shen Xuan looked surprised and said, "Fellow Daoist Zeng, you are quite the hidden talent."

Both are at the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment realm.

The Zeng family head is stronger than the Guan family head.

While suppressing the Guan family head, the Zeng family head said, "Fellow Daoist Shen, Zeng Kuozong received the decree from True Person Wuchen, ordering me to wipe out the demonic cultivators in Weiwu County."

Shen Xuan was surprised.

It turns out that the Zeng family were the trusted confidants that Master Wuchen had planted in Weiwu County.

Instead of the Guan family, who are at the top of the list!
Patriarch Zeng continued, "The Guan family colluded with the Blood Spirit Sect and betrayed the Azure Water Sect, intending to sacrifice themselves in the Mighty Martial County. I have already consulted with True Person Wuchen, who has granted me permission to assist Fellow Daoist Shen in slaying demons and eliminating the Guan family."

That's an exaggeration!

Shen Xuan raised an eyebrow and looked at the Guan family head.

The other party gritted his teeth and desperately resisted the Zeng family head's attacks, but made no attempt to distinguish between them.

Clearly, what the Zeng family head said was true.

Shen Xuan sighed softly.

When you're caught up in something, it's hard to stay out of it, no matter where you are.

Fortunately, the Zeng family head has brought the situation under control.

Shen Xuan made up his mind not to make a move easily again.

Unless absolutely necessary.

Just then, a whooshing sound came from behind.

Two streaks of light arrived beside him.

It was Qianzhu Jushi and Qi Wanqing.

"Guan Dingren, now that things have come to this, what do you have to say? Just accept your fate!"

The Zeng family head's flying sword pressed closer and closer.

The Guan family head roared and spat out a mouthful of blood essence onto the Blood Shadow Flying Sword, desperately trying to deflect the Zeng family head's flying sword magic weapon.

Seizing the fleeting opening, he transformed into a streak of light and fled.

However, Qi Wanqing suddenly made a move.

Several cold stars, like lightning, shot towards the head of the Guan family.

The Soul-Devouring Needle was hidden within.

The Guan family head was weakened by blood and qi deficiency. He was caught off guard and was hit by the Soul-Devouring Needle, and his body immediately began to deteriorate.

"You bitch! How dare you ambush me from the shadows!"

Enraged, the head of the Guan family forcibly stabilized his spiritual power, took out a blood-red pill, and swallowed it.

next moment.

The head of the Guan family's body continued to grow larger, his face became ferocious, and four more arms actually grew out of his body. He roared and howled, his voice like thunder.

His aura was turbid and chaotic, yet incredibly powerful, comparable to the late Foundation Establishment stage.

Shen Xuan was slightly taken aback.

At this moment, the appearance of the Guan family head was quite similar to that of the bull-headed, six-armed demon god in the Qingyun Secret Realm.
